Rp Tutorials

here's a challenge (at 1 am too). does anyone know a layout that looks, or extremely close, to this. it used to be a layout from GJ but since that is dead and gone...

hello, everyone! So, I'm not exactly new to the community but this is my first time posting and while browsing through all the extremely helpful links but I still haven't really found a basic icon making tutorial. I'm not looking for anything fancy, just your simple tutorial on how to properly icon photos so they don't look blurred or grainy, etc. For example these. (my apologies if that's your journal but I totally dig how simple and clean the icons look!) can anyone help me out? Also, what programs do you as icon makers prefer to work with? Any and all help is greatly appreciated!

Hey all. I've got the code for this GJ layout. It's a custom style and you have to have a paid account to get it to work. I've got the edits and everything in an old rp journal of mine. I tried to post it but it ended up formatting itself and didn't make sense.

So if anyone can tell me how to share it, I'd be happy to. It's just that I can't get it to work and I know that it's too complicated to send via PM.

Here it is in text form. Few things you need to know. First of all, you have to have a paid account in order to create a style. You will have to create a friends page style too as well as a journal page. It's the same coding. Just fill in the blanks on the create a style page here. Just click the first box, then go down and hit save and you'll get a style name although you can name it whatever you want. Then you can edit from there. Just fill in the boxes according to the text document I posted. If there isn't anything listed, just leave that box blank. Then take the override code if you want a background image and paste it into your usual override box. Do the same to create a new friends page.

As for colors you can use the colors that IJ has or you can use custom colors.

Hope this works! If you use it, I'd like to see how it turned out. And please, you don't have to credit me. All I did was copy/paste. I don't know who wrote the original code, it was given to me three years ago by someone on GJ!
